Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Audubon County, Craig M. Dreismeier, Judge. AFFIRMED AS MODIFIED AND REMANDED WITH INSTRUCTIONS. Heard by Greer, P.J., and Langholz and Sandy, JJ. Opinion by Sandy, J. (17 pages)
Alison Brinker appeals the district court decree dissolving her marriage with Jason Owen, arguing the district court (1) undervalued the Owen family acreage, (2) failed to value certain farm equipment separately from the Accu-Steel company valuation, (3) undervalued the Klocke and Klein farms, and (4) wrongly denied her spousal support. OPINION HOLDS: We affirm the district court’s valuation of Accu-Steel. We modify the district court’s denial of spousal support to Alison and determine that she shall be awarded $3500 in monthly traditional spousal support consistent with this opinion. We affirm the district court in all other respects and remand for purposes of calculating child support.
